What Is SEO in Johannesburg?

Search Engine Optimisation aligns three pillars to match how Jozi buyers search:

  1. Technical SEO — Core Web Vitals (targets: LCP < 2.5s, INP < 200ms, CLS < 0.1), crawl/index controls, canonicalisation, structured data.

  2. On‑Page & Content — intent‑mapped pages and topic clusters that answer real questions and convert.

  3. Off‑Page & Local — editorial mentions (Digital PR), consistent NAP/citations, and an optimised Google Business Profile for Map Pack visibility.

Johannesburg searches are mobile‑first, often with suburb modifiers (e.g., Sandton, Randburg, Midrand) or urgency (near me, open now, same day). Your pages need speed, clarity, and location relevance.
